Ridgewood NJ, surgeons at Duke University were the first to implant a new generation of Total Artificial Heart (TAH) after receiving FDA approval for human trials. The TAH has a variable heart rate that adjusts based on patient activity and can be used as a complete replacement for living donor hearts. Each device costs around $190,000, plus the costs of critical care staff and other medications. The device could solve long waitlists and high costs so that a heart will always be available for any patient in need.

    Unfortunately that space is not hollow, it is full of manure and no scientist would dare to go there. The last few valid cells are surely to be killed by the endless covid boosters.
    Watch The Spongebob Movie, it totally reflects today’s “all hail brandon” reality. I wish I could post an image from that movie here.
